He has a unique sound. Check out 'Good thing', 'Suspicious minds', 'Johnny come home', 'I'm not the man I used to be', I met Roland Gift (lead singer), must've been early-ish 2000s when I did some building plans on his house. Really really nice guy.
@@paul-Ess With 2 US number 1s and 5 UK top 10 hits I don't think he would be too bothered about lessons. And since they wrote their two biggest hits (this and Good Thing, that both hit number 1 in the US) I'm not sure that he needs to work again.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! I never thought of that!! That’s awesome!! To put in better context, sound systems of the day were used in full advantage of the artist who knew certain sounds rocked especially in night club systems.
The voice in the chorus is Roland's regular voice. The verses are sung in falsetto. Some other falsetto singers are Philip Bailey (Earth Wind & Fire), Frankie Valli, Prince, El DeBarge, Eddie Kendricks (The Temptations), Michael Jackson, Blue Magic, The Stylistics, Smokey Robinson, Black Ivory, The Delfonics, Ron Banks (The Dramatics), Wayne Cooper (Cameo), Bobby DeBarge (Switch), Maxwell, Jeffrey Daniel (Shalamar), Al Green. Falsetto is also common in 1950s doo wop songs and so is a low bass voice.
You want to really hear a falsetto? Check out the 60s group, The Newbeats, with their songs "Bread And Butter" or "Run Baby Run". @Brad & Lex, the Newbeats would be fun to see you react to.
This came out in the heyday of MTV, when they played one music video after another, 24 hours a day, instead of nonstop "reality" shows. Music videos were EVERYTHING back then!
The Fine Young Cannibals also covered Elvis's Suspicious Mind , featuring backing vocals by Jimmy Somerville (Bronski Beat) or check Fine Young Cannibals - I'm Not The Man I Used To Be
Yeah his voice sounds very different when he sings "I'm Not The Man I Used To Be." Would like to see them hear the huge difference. He had an incredibal vocal range.
Made by the director of new order true faith. That’s another bat sh*t video. Recorded at Paisley Park, so Prince’s dna all over it. Sadly Roland’s style was very destructive to his vocal chords and their output became almost zero after the raw and the cooked LP
This band was amazing. Suspicious Minds (covering Elvis’ classic song arguably better than the King himself), Ever Fallen In Love, Johnny Come Home, Good Thing and I’m Not The Man I Used To Be are amazing songs.
Lex...you are such a joy. The type of person I used to remember being when I was younger. I wish I knew you personally. Keep being yourself. We all love you!
People knock the '80's but we had some wonderful tunes like this one flooding the charts here in the UK. Roland Gift (Lead Singer) is still around. Brad & Lex, if you get a chance try 'Johnny Come On Home it has a different vibe but is also another one of Fine Young Cannibals big hits from back then.'
Love the song, it's got a happy sound to it. I feel like I have heard it in multiple movies, makes me think of walking on sunshine. I also find it funny that such a happy sounding song is done by a group with cannibal in the name lol, never knew their name before.
I was watching MTV at my grandmas house with my cousins in early 1989. This video starts and my grandma stops by the family room to see what we were watching. Then the lead singer Ronald starts singing and my grandma starts laughing...such a big man with a little voice lol Listen to GOOD THINGS and my favorite...a cover of Suspicious Minds of Elvis.
I remember my parents listening to this song in Australia in 1980’s when I was 6 years old Sitting in the back of a station wagon/Ute. That’s the memory I have when I hear it.
The way he sings this one is just for this song which makes it unique. It takes me to junior high 1990. They're from the u.k and you can't go wrong with them. My favorite track of theirs is "I'm not the man I used to be.." that's early 90s hip hop but u.k style. You'll love it.
This is one of my favorite 80s songs. Its on my 80 exercise playlist with Whitney Houston, huey lewis, eddie money, get outta my dreams and get into my car. The 80s had some serious gold nuggets!!
@Stabis Hop - Agree, I don't get the hype for this song which is far from their best. And yes Johnny Come Home is my favourite too, followed by their cover of Suspicious MInds.
So glad you found FYC! Perfect for Lex! A good number of male singers use their Falsetto voice to great and unique advantage. One of the best examples was Frankie Valli, lead singer of the Four Seasons. Biggest hits early to mid 60s
This is one of my favourite songs from the 80's. It never gets old for me. As usual, great reaction Brad and Lex. Suspicious Minds cover by FYC should be next.
The lead singer of this band played a really cool immortal villain in the HIGHLANDER TV series as XAVIER ST CLOUD. He hated DUNCAN so much in the series. Filmed in CANADA.
Interesting that they're doing Ska-adjacent songs (Bananarama and the Go-Go's (Jane Weidland) connection to Fun Boy Three) and this (The Beat) yet they have yet to do a proper 2-Tone Ska band. They'll probably do General Public next and then we can expect some actual second generation Ska (Bad Manners, The Selector, The Specials, The Beat, Madness,...).
I love how rock can make room for voices as diverse as Bob Dylan, Cyndi Lauper, David Byrne, and The Fine Young Cannibals. And no one even blinks. We just hear some weird, new, original voice, and everyone goes, 'Cool. New territory.'
Their Album "The Raw And The Cooked" was so good they released 7 singles from it. Please do their song "I'm Not the Man I Used to Be". It's their best one!
‘Johnny Come Home’ is great song by this band. I remember being in a maths lesson at school, the teacher was super strict and there was silence. Matthew McGuigan suddenly sang ‘Johnny, we’re sorry’ really loud. The teacher went ballistic, the class fell about laughing. I was 13 at the time.
Lex, I love days like this. The last few videos, you're just having a blast. That is what 80's music was about...just have fun...love, live and be crazy.
Gotta own up on this one, came out when I was about 17. Heard this jam on the radio and for a second thought it was The Bee Gees, just the pitch of his voice.
Roland Gift is the black, mixed race version of Axl Rose, huh? Lol. He's really a great singer, though. FYC were a fun pop rock, funk/R&B, Eurodance group back in the '80s and early '90s. Check out more of their videos "Don't Look Back", "Good Thing", "Suspicious Minds", "I'm Not Satisfied".
The guy in the cushion outfit was Philippe Decouflé, the director of this music video (he was in fact a French choreographer and the other dancers in the video were members of his troupe). He also directed the video "True Faith" by New Order, whose song and video is definitely worth checking out.
A classic song from my childhood. Will always love this song! So much nostalgia and good vibes when I hear this! But no, this song is about a guy who is hopelessly lost in lust and love with someone, and he has no control over himself.
I think the word Lex was looking for is falsetto. Axl Rose and the dude from FYC both employ lots of falsetto in their singing. Not surprising she didn't understand since women generally don't have the falsetto range of men and already have higher voices, so therefore they rarely use it.
Lex, you have such great energy and spirit. Life usually takes that out of us so it’s especially neat to see that you’ve survived with yours intact. Good for you, Lex! Juke on, Baby Girl!
Fun fact: Roland Gift was hired as the vocalist as soon as he showed up to the audition, even before he could sing, because the other band members liked the way he looked. Luckily he was a good singer too.
[Verse 1] I can't stop the way I feel Things you do don't seem real Tell me what you've got in mind 'Cause we're running out of time Won't you ever set me free? This waiting 'round's killing me [Chorus] She drives me crazy Like no one else She drives me crazy And I can't help myself [Verse 2] I can't get any rest People say I'm obsessed Everything you say is lies But to me, there's no surprise What I had for you was true Things go wrong, they always do [Chorus] She drives me crazy Like no one else She drives me crazy And I can't help myself
I had a neighbor in Sacramento in 1989 who played this a lot, but that didn't drive me crazy, because it’s such a good song. Around that time, I was listening a lot to “For Experience Sake” by Cock Robin and an album by the group Grace Pool.
Y'all would like Robbie Nevil's C'est La Vie - official video - 7 million viewers can't be wrong. A cool vibe with great instrumentals that will make you want to dance.
FYC is the bomb! You really should do more of their songs. Johnny Come Home or even Suspicious Minds. All really good, and Roland's voice will be sure to draw you in.
I remember watching this video when it came out and absolutely cracking up to the way he was singing this song. The song was actually catchy and good but it was just hilarious to hear that " I can't help myself " part.
Serious guilty pleasure. The hook in that chorus is evil! It gets into your head and festers for days until it's not SHE driving you crazy, it's the song!! 🤣
One of my more surreal musical experiences was when I was standing in a Cracker Barrel restaurant, waiting to be seated and heard them start playing Dolly Parton's cover of this song. Never expected her to do a cover of this.
Lexi, from an old man trying not to be creepy, with your permission Brad: You are just stunning with the exact right amount of makeup, you just glow, please, PLEASE don't do anymore than you have on no fake lashes big eyeliner none of that crap...Just love your natural beauty from within and from without.
Stevo, you must be REALLY old (or maybe just plain old fashioned) if you're asking Brad for permission to address Lex. But I see that you've already given her a pet name :-)
@@blackenreed1425 Just feels weird addressing another mans wife about her appearance...Old fashioned? Maybe, but seeing how the world is, nothing wrong with that...
@Stabis Hop I never thought about it like that, but I just looked at the views for both this song and Johnny Come Home and the views for this song are huge compared👍
@Stabis Hop Yes it does seem to be like that unfortunately. There are loads of gems that people have forgotten that could be revived by a good reaction channel but they just don't have the views on UA-cam.
thanks...this was in 1986...mtv started in 1981...the station was revolutionary...loved it...i was 35 in 81...the new wave sound was milder and more entertaining...many bands succeeded because of mtv...funk and disco were the cherries on top...
He has a unique sound. Check out 'Good thing', 'Suspicious minds', 'Johnny come home', 'I'm not the man I used to be',
I met Roland Gift (lead singer), must've been early-ish 2000s when I did some building plans on his house. Really really nice guy.
Hope you gave him some singing lessons.
@@paul-Ess With 2 US number 1s and 5 UK top 10 hits I don't think he would be too bothered about lessons. And since they wrote their two biggest hits (this and Good Thing, that both hit number 1 in the US) I'm not sure that he needs to work again.
I agree with you about Suspicious Minds. His voice is perfect for that cover.
@@davidjames3080 This was No. 1 in Australia too
@@paul-Ess 😮😄
I nominate *Lex* for having the world's best *giggle!*
Agreed😀
I'll second that motion. - It's great to see these guys' huge appreciation and insights into music... love the channel
It is adorable.
It would be great at any time except waking you up at 3am when you're alone in the house.
This song and “ Good thing” by them … ohhhh, I miss the 80’s. Towards the end guys them were shining . Daring and creative music.
I like "good thing" too, and i was a headbanger back then.....
@@weedthepeople2795 I was a head banger too, but on the sly I jammed all this good stuff
Roland Gift ( the singer) his wife died in 2019 they had a long marriage. They have two kids.
@@oreally8605 How sad. He seems like a nice chap .
Definitely "Good Thing".
With Mods riding around on their Vespas in the video.
Rolands voice is one most don’t expect. As a friend put it. He and Rick Astley had their voices switched at birth.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! I never thought of that!! That’s awesome!! To put in better context, sound systems of the day were used in full advantage of the artist who knew certain sounds rocked especially in night club systems.

Falsetto is also common in 1950s doo wop songs and so is a low bass voice.
You know your stuff. The falsetto in the Stylistics is Russell Thompkins, Jr.
And Barry Gibb
And Axl Rose
@@ralphdougherty1844 Axl Rose can sing in falsetto? News to me lol
You want to really hear a falsetto? Check out the 60s group, The Newbeats, with their songs "Bread And Butter" or "Run Baby Run".

Ong i miss old mtv. I want my mtv back. Sad they are woken😮
The Fine Young Cannibals also covered Elvis's Suspicious Mind , featuring backing vocals by Jimmy Somerville (Bronski Beat)
or check Fine Young Cannibals - I'm Not The Man I Used To Be
Yeah his voice sounds very different when he sings "I'm Not The Man I Used To Be." Would like to see them hear the huge difference. He had an incredibal vocal range.
Really... I never realized that that was Summerville.
My jam when I was little lol. How can you not hear this song in every retail store. Love it guys!
It's just how Roland sings, and sometimes a video is just a video. Don't overthink it 😁
You must be new to the channel.
@@Danimal77 Now that is funny!
Brad's still pondering whether or not they are in fact ""Fine", "Young" , or ""Cannibals".
Made by the director of new order true faith. That’s another bat sh*t video.
Recorded at Paisley Park, so Prince’s dna all over it. Sadly Roland’s style was very destructive to his vocal chords and their output became almost zero after the raw and the cooked LP
@@mradriankool I thought it looked famiiar - he's basically re-used the look from True Faith.
The lead singer for fine Young cannibals Roland Gift played a recurring role as a immortal villain on the Highlander TV series.
I did not know that!
I loved him in that show.
I'm pretty sure he was in a couple other shows.. but not coming to my mind.
I thought that was him. Thank you for bringing it up.
Xavier St. Cloud - He played a great villain.
Lol...remember seeing that dude and thought "he looks like the guy from Fine Young Cannibals" but didn't know it was actually him.
This band was amazing. Suspicious Minds (covering Elvis’ classic song arguably better than the King himself), Ever Fallen In Love, Johnny Come Home, Good Thing and I’m Not The Man I Used To Be are amazing songs.
Lex...you are such a joy. The type of person I used to remember being when I was younger. I wish I knew you personally. Keep being yourself. We all love you!

The other two had a side project called Two Men, A Drum Machine & A Trumpet. Long name...
Loved "Johnny Come On Home"! The horns in that song are also really cool.
Love the song, it's got a happy sound to it. I feel like I have heard it in multiple movies, makes me think of walking on sunshine. I also find it funny that such a happy sounding song is done by a group with cannibal in the name lol, never knew their name before.
It is such a treat to see Lex really enjoying a new song.
man they used to play this so much on the radio your head would explode
After school cartoon is absolutely perfect
I was watching MTV at my grandmas house with my cousins in early 1989. This video starts and my grandma stops by the family room to see what we were watching. Then the lead singer Ronald starts singing and my grandma starts laughing...such a big man with a little voice lol
Listen to GOOD THINGS and my favorite...a cover of Suspicious Minds of Elvis.
One of my favorite songs, I love this couple! Y'all just lifted my spirit as I was feeling down! Thank you!
its amazing how soulful & funky british groups were in the 80s. actually also in the 60s with the first british invasion of US charts.
I remember my parents listening to this song in Australia in 1980’s when I was 6 years old
Sitting in the back of a station wagon/Ute. That’s the memory I have when I hear it.

@Stabis Hop - Agree, I don't get the hype for this song which is far from their best. And yes Johnny Come Home is my favourite too, followed by their cover of Suspicious MInds.
Used to pay this song at volume 11 (out of 10) in 1989/1990. Extended mix. Driving home in my car which had a good sound system. Good days.
Good thing and their cover of suspicious minds are both great hits too. I love his voice!
So glad you found FYC! Perfect for Lex! A good number of male singers use their Falsetto voice to great and unique advantage. One of the best examples was Frankie Valli, lead singer of the Four Seasons. Biggest hits early to mid 60s

Brings me back. Fantastic band and you’ve to react to ”Johny come home”.
This is one of my favourite songs from the 80's. It never gets old for me. As usual, great reaction Brad and Lex. Suspicious Minds cover by FYC should be next.
Roland Gift the lead singer has two kids and his wife passed away in 2019 after a long marriage.
Brad & Lex, you'll love their "Good Thing"!! Roland Gift with the 'fine' vocals!
here for it
And maybe "Johnny".
80's banger. It came right at the very end of the 80's, but it has that unmistakable 80's sound.
This is when tunes were masterpieces and music videos were awesome! And lovely Lex gets it straight away 👍
This song makes me think of the movie career opportunities and Target
FYC also made it into the 1987 movie Tin Men as the club band.
The lead singer of this band played a really cool immortal villain in the HIGHLANDER TV series as XAVIER ST CLOUD. He hated DUNCAN so much in the series. Filmed in CANADA.
Glad you are finally getting in to the English groups... The English Beat, The Jam, Madness are just a few of the best!
The Bass and Guitar player were from the Beat.
Im pretty sure half the music they have ever reacted to has been UK music.
@@thefowlyetti2 that’s probably because until Rap destroyed music culture. It was Us and America leading the world.
Interesting that they're doing Ska-adjacent songs (Bananarama and the Go-Go's (Jane Weidland) connection to Fun Boy Three) and this (The Beat) yet they have yet to do a proper 2-Tone Ska band.

Please do their song "I'm Not the Man I Used to Be". It's their best one!
And yet, their first album was much better.
80's to the max!
As usual, Lex makes a good thing even better. You're a lucky man Brad.
Amen to that! She cheers me up no matter what my day's been like.
"Good Thing"? Another good FYC choice.
I knew you'd like this 1 lexy!!

Yep I thought that too.
And the director of the vidéo is Jean-Baptiste Mondino, if i'm not wrong.

Big band in the UK, Roland Gift is great live
Check out the band they were a spin off from 'The English Beat' their song 'Mirror In The Bathroom' is fantastic.
[Verse 1]
I can't stop the way I feel
Things you do don't seem real
Tell me what you've got in mind
'Cause we're running out of time
Won't you ever set me free?
This waiting 'round's killing me
[Chorus]
She drives me crazy
Like no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself
[Verse 2]
I can't get any rest
People say I'm obsessed
Everything you say is lies
But to me, there's no surprise
What I had for you was true
Things go wrong, they always do
[Chorus]
She drives me crazy
Like no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself
New Wave.
Always loved them!! Had that album on cassette
Oh yeah, shades of the 80s. The beginning of MTV. When they played actual music videos. Wish someone would do that again.
I had a neighbor in Sacramento in 1989 who played this a lot, but that didn't drive me crazy, because it’s such a good song. Around that time, I was listening a lot to “For Experience Sake” by Cock Robin and an album by the group Grace Pool.
Very distinctive sound on this track - makes it stand out from its contemporaries.
This whole fist album was good.. it’s been awhile,I have to dig it out and listen to the whole thing.
These guys 7sed to be 8n a band called The English Beat that are worth a listen.
Y'all would like Robbie Nevil's C'est La Vie - official video - 7 million viewers can't be wrong. A cool vibe with great instrumentals that will make you want to dance.
FYC did a great song "Johnny Come Home" and a great cover of "Suspicious Minds" you should check out.
Suspicious minds a must reaction.
He had a fantastic unique voice. So many songs came out in the 80s ,I miss the decade
I don't find The Falsetto strange at all it's fairly common it R&B music through out the years.
FYC is the bomb! You really should do more of their songs. Johnny Come Home or even Suspicious Minds. All really good, and Roland's voice will be sure to draw you in.
Awesome. Forgot about these guys. Thanks for reminding me! I have their debut on tape somewhere. The raw and the cooked. It was a Gift!
I love you guys!🥰
Top song❤. You must do Johnny comes home. It is an absolute banger.
This song hit the charts during my 21st year on this little old planet. Happy memories, fine band. Roland was totally unique!
Grandmother: How do you like those Nice Young Cannibals?
Mother: They're fine.
Me: losing it.
Grandmother: What?
Their cover of suspicious minds is amazing. I had such a crush on Roland back in the day.
I remember watching this video when it came out and absolutely cracking up to the way he was singing this song. The song was actually catchy and good but it was just hilarious to hear that " I can't help myself " part.
Check out " I'm not the man I used to be" a great song about losing your youth and edge. Roland's voice is so moving on it.
Axel's alien cousin!! Love it!!
Serious guilty pleasure. The hook in that chorus is evil! It gets into your head and festers for days until it's not SHE driving you crazy, it's the song!! 🤣
There's a New Order music video that's a lot like this
Love the dancing guitar players. You see a lot more of them in the video for 'Suspicious Minds'.
You should do "Mirror in the Bathroom" by the English Beat, this band's guitar and bass player's band .
One of my most favourite bands.

music is one of the trippiest human inventions ever. for some reason certain tones and sounds play and our bodies start having involuntary seizures.
any time i see/hear this group all i can think of is the lead singer as xavier st.cloud in the highlander series ... btw he was a gr8 bad guy!
I NEED to hear axl sing this now. And FYC Cover "it's so easy". Make sure u get your cut Lex!🤘
Roland has such a unique voice always has
Love these guys so much, came back for a third listen and I'll probably come back some more.
Looking back these 80’s songs crack me up! They used to push the volume at the clubs🤣🤣🤣
One of the most underrated songs ever made
I didn't care for this song when it first came out, but they played it on Mtv so much it just wears on ya after a while.
thanks...this was in 1986...mtv started in 1981...the station was revolutionary...loved it...i was 35 in 81...the new wave sound was milder and more entertaining...many bands succeeded because of mtv...funk and disco were the cherries on top...
the station did die of DEI...
Nothing like hearing this come on the radio in the summer as a lil kid in the 80s!
